Honestly, I had crazy sweet cravings and ate hot jalebis almost every weekend in my second trimester. My baby is perfectly healthy and fine. Just control the portion size so u dont get a sudden sugar rush.
Having a jalebi once in a while is absolutely fine to satisfy your cravings. Just don't make it a daily habit because excess sugar and maida can lead to sudden weight gain. Balance your meals with healthy fruits too.
If you crave it, just have a small piece of home-made jalebi for taste and hygiene. But if you feel heavy acidity or vomiting after eating sweet things, please consult your gynac. Moderation is always best.
I am in my 5th month now and my sweet tooth is out of control. Do you guys also feel super guilty after eating such sugary stuff? I worry if it will impact the baby's weight or health.
Arey, sweet cravings are completely normal during these beautiful months! Go ahead and enjoy a small hot jalebi to keep yourself happy. Just drink plenty of water after having sweets and avoid eating them late at night.
Please be very careful with highly sugary foods like jalebi. I had gestational diabetes during my pregnancy and had to strictly cut out all such sweets. Better to keep an eye on your blood sugar reports before indulging.
It is just empty calories and pure sugar, let's be real. But a little bit to satisfy your soul is completely fine. Just ensure you buy it from a very hygienic, reputed sweet shop.
Oh god, even I am craving hot jalebis with rabri so much nowadays! But is outside food safe during these months? I am always so scared of getting stomach infections.
